Are You Really Ready To Sell?

Homes

If your home no longer fits your lifestyle, your budget, or your family, it may be time to look into your finances and see if a move is right for you.

CAPITAL REGION, NY EDITION

Selling your house, whether for the first time or the fourth, is a big deal.

It’s never an easy decision, even if it’s practical.

Account Executive/Owner Sales Representative

David P. Lisi, RMC

Before you plant the “For Sale” sign in the front yard, renowned financial expert Dave Ramsey suggests you take a minute to honestly answer a

Sales Representative

few questions:

Doug Benson, RMC

• Are you ready to put in the work to get your house ready for house hunters?

• Are you committed to keeping it ready to show for weeks or months?

• Are you ready to hear the reasons why potential buyers believe your home is not perfect?

• Are you ready for honest - and sometimes hardball - negotiations over what buyers are willing to pay for your home?

• Are you really ready to move out and leave the place where your family has made memories?

Getting a home ready for the market is a lot of work and takes time.

Choosing to sell is a big decision that requires the careful weighing of many factors. Consult with a trusted lender and real estate professional, do your due diligence and enter into the process fully prepared to do what it takes to get top dollar.

IKEA Introduces New Way to Reduce Indoor Air Pollution

With A Curtain

This may sound far-fetched but it will soon be possible to reduce common indoor air pollutants using just a curtain.

A mineral-based surface treatment enables the new IKEA curtain to break down air pollutants when it gets in contact with light.

Around 90% of people worldwide breathe polluted air, which is estimated to cause eight million deaths per year. The GUNRID air purifying curtain, available in IKEA stores next year, uses a unique technology similar to photosynthesis found in nature. The process is activated by both outdoor and indoor light. “We know that there is no single solution to solve air pollution. We work long term for positive change, to enable people to live healthier and more sustainable lives,” says IKEA’s Lena Pripp-Kovac.

GUNRID is the first product to use the technology, but the development is expected to give opportunities for future applications on other textiles.

Spring Cleaning For Your Insurance Policies

Spring may be the traditional time of year for cleaning out closets and drawers and organizing attics, but it is also a great time to review your insurance coverages, according to the Insurance Information Institute.

As your life changes so do your insurance needs.

Ask yourself the following key questions: Is my home covered for its full rebuilding cost?

Review your policy to make sure that you have enough insurance to rebuild your home. If you

have made major improvements to your home, adding a new room, enclosing a porch or expanding a kitchen or bathroom, you risk being underinsured if you don’t adjust your homeowners insurance coverage limits. And if you don’t yet have a separate flood insurance policy, check whether your home is in a flood risk zone at FloodSmart.gov.

Do I have enough coverage for expensive items?

Standard homeowners insurance has dollar limits for the theft of certain types of expensive items like jewelry, furs and silverware. This means that the insurer will only pay the amount specified in the policy. To insure these items to their full dollar value, have the items appraised and consider a special personal property endorsement or floater. This coverage includes “accidental disappearance,” meaning coverage if you simply lose that item—and there is no deductible.

Do I have enough liability insurance to fully protect my assets?

Standard homeowners and auto policies liability coverage, pay for judgments against you and your legal fees, up to a limit set in the policy.

However, in our litigious society, you may want to have additional protection. An umbrella policy kicks in when you reach the limit on the underlying liability coverage in a homeowners, renters, condo or auto policy. If your assets have increased of late, you’ll have more to lose and may want to consider this extra layer of protection.

Should I rent out my house during the vacation period?

Whether you own a second home that you plan to lease to a tenant, or want to rent out your primary residence though an online service such as Airbnb, your first step should be to call your insurance professional. Depending on the rental scenario, your standard homeowners policy may not cover losses incurred while your home is rented out, and you may require a more specialized insurance policy.

This spring, plan a talk with your insurance professional so he or she can help you get the coverage you need. (iii.org)

Spring House Hunting?

Game On!

You’ll need to be on your A-Game if you’re house hunting this Spring.

The number of buyers ready to put their tax returns towards a new home is at its highest as the school season draws closer to an end and families have more flexibility to move. Longer days and nicer weather mean optimal opportunity for house hunting. Zillow’s database shows homes sold from mid-March to mid-April sell 15% faster and for 2% more than the average listing. (agent fire)

Change Your Address With the Postal Service

Are you moving? To let the post office know you are going to change your address and want your mail forwarded to your new location, you have two options: Go to USPS.com/move to change your address online.

•This is the fastest and easiest way, and you immediately get an email confirming the change.

•There is a $1 charge to change your address online. You will need a credit or debit card and a valid email address. The $1 charge to your card is an identity verification fee to prevent fraud and make sure you’re the one making the change.

•Warning: You don’t need to pay a separate company to change your address. Scammers may charge $40 or more to do what you can do for just $1 using the moving section of the official USPS.com website.

Go to your local post office and request a Mover’s Guide packet.

•Inside the packet is PS Form 3575. Fill out this change of address form and give it to a postal worker behind the counter or drop it into the letter mail slot inside the post office.

•You should receive a confirmation letter at your new address in five business days.

Brighten Your Home

With Daylighting Looking for relatively quick, doable home improvement projects that won’t break the bank?

You can create a bright, cheerful home just by changing the lighting.A well-lit space can make rooms appear more spacious, as well as brighten the colors of your decor or accessories. As you begin to plan your lighting, consider a daylighting system that brings natural brightness to all the areas in your home.

Daylighting systems bring true natural light into your home. Lightbulbs that are labeled as “daylight” are designed to mimic natural light as closely as they can, but these bulbs are not true sources of natural light.Solatube Daylighting Systems, on the other hand, are designed to capture the sun’s perfect natural brightness and deliver it into indoor spaces, like traditional skylights. Unlike traditional skylights, however, daylighting systems are much more versatile to work in any room in your home. They are also leak-proof, plus more cost-effective and timeeffective than traditional skylights that are built into the home’s architecture.

Daylighting systems harness the sun’s light, which means you’re using less energy to light up your home. Because they use less energy, daylighting systems also cut down on utility costs. You’ll save money even taking installation costs into consideration in the long run.

Traditional skylights can provide natural lighting, but these structures are limited and not possible for all rooms in the home. New daylighting systems can be installed for any interior. Plus, the Spectralight Infinity Tubing is designed using the most reflective materials and in configurations that allow all areas of the room to be bright, including hard-to-reach corners.

Every interior is different, and that’s why daylighting systems can be modified with accessories to fit your needs. Whether you’re

newsShorts looking for a solar-powered nightlight solution, a dimmer add-on or a ventilation component for rooms like the bathroom, there’s an accessory to help your daylighting system work for your space.

The technology for daylighting systems might be complex, but installing one in your home is not.

Transforming your space with a daylighting system only takes two hours and requires minimal structural changes to your home. Ready to bring true natural light into your home? Learn more about daylighting systems and how you can use them to improve your home by visiting https://www.solatube.com. (BPT)

Seniors Want To

Age At Home -

More Are Moving To Make It A Reality Most older adults - about 94 percent - want to stay at home as they age.

But a new survey from the Home Instead Senior Care network shows many seniors are redefining what it means to age in place, revealing that one in four plan to move to a new home to accommodate their changing needs.

can impair mobility. Stairs that were once easy to navigate might now present a challenge.

• Balance. Neurological disorders and other chronic conditions increase the risk for balance problems, as well as falls on slippery floors and getting in and out of the bathtub.

• Eyesight. Studies indicate that a 60-year-old needs at least three times more ambient light to see than a 20-year-old. Poor eyesight may make medication management and personal grooming difficult, and can lead to tripping hazards.

•Memory. The effects of memory loss might make it hard for an older adult to stay on a medication plan, remember to turn off stove burners or pay bills on time.

With so much to consider, it’s easy to feel overwhelmed navigating the decision of where to age. In fact, just one in four seniors surveyed report having specific plans for where they will live as they become older. To help seniors make an informed decision on the best place to age, Home Instead is introducing Home Your Own Way, a collection of free resources for seniors and their loved ones to navigate options.

Whether older adults age in their current home, downsize, move to a senior living community or choose to live with relatives, the goal of Home Your Own Way is to provide seniors and families with the resources they need to make a decision that is right for them. To learn more, visit www.

HomeYourOwnWay.com or www.homeinstead. com. (NewsUSA)

Among those who want to age in a new home, many older adults are searching for improved practicality - with top desired features, including single-floor living and easy or low cost of maintenance. For those who want to stay in their current homes, nearly two-thirds have given thought to age-friendly modifications, such as adding grab bars to bathrooms or other safety measures.

Homeownership

When seniors and loved ones are faced with the question of what features are best for them, it’s important to consider effects of aging that could make certain areas of the home hazardous, such as:

One out of every three millennials is currently paying down educational loans, on which they owe an average of $47,671. In some case, that debt is so crippling that people are putting off buying homes, getting married, and having kids.

•Agility and mobility. Conditions such as arthritis

On Hold

Americans have more than $1.5 trillion in student loan debt, and that total is growing by $3,000 every second.
